I've been fascinated with marketing since elementary school, when I memorized this Calgon ad. this Life cereal ad, and this TV theme song. A framed copy of this Revlon cosmetics ad hangs in my house today!

Today, I focus on social media. I've personally built multiple brands through consistent branding, websites, technology automation, and scores of platforms and channels.

One example of the work I've done: For five years, I organized and hosted ROCKET CITY YOGA℠, the largest yoga event in the state of Alabama. Every inch of this event was promoted via social media (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram) and email campaigns. By the end of the fifth year, Rocket City Yoga Week had totaled 300+ events, taught by more than 50 talented yoga teachers, and a yearly average attendance of 2000+ yogis. In the final two years, yoga week successfully raised more than $10,000 for charity.

I love connecting people. I've built an amazing network simply through a desire to help connect them with what they need to thrive and succeed! Social media is a powerful tool that helps accomplish my goal of connecting and tribe-building. Today's buyers want to know you're real and reachable. Your customer service is now front and center, where everyone is watching. How are you responding? My clients range from magazine-quality landscape designers to health and wellness entrepreneurs to tax and bookkeeping professionals to food & beverage creatives.
As a full-time freelance social media manager, I spend my days immersed in Twitter, Facebook, blog posts, Instagram, LinkedIn, Tumblr, Pinterest, Houzz, Alignable, Asana, Dropbox, and Evernote. I love creating content for my clients, juggling their calendar of promotions, and managing their multiple channels and platforms!
Based in the southeastern U.S., I happily manage social media for clients anywhere in the nation.
